Jet’s Pizza

I love Jet’s, and this location is no exception. The pizza and breadsticks are bomb (get turbo crust!) and the staff is always super friendly. Very fast too and willing to accommodate misunderstandings!

Hope you aren’t thinking about ordering online! I placed my order for one large pepperoni pizza with a salad online and waited the 20 minutes suggested time to go pick it up. When I arrived, the manager said he «just received the order» and asked when I had sent it. I showed him the receipt on my phone and he acted like a complete dick. I would think he would be a little nicer and offer me a discount or SOMETHING. Instead he acted like it was my fault, asked for my money and said, «well it’s gonna be another 20 minutes!» UGH fine. If I didn’t love jets pizza I would not come here just because how rude this guy was.

If you are looking for a deep dish, doughy, «Detroit-​style» square pizza, this is the best in Lansing. If you are looking for something close to what would actually pass for «pizza» in Italy, this ain’t it. Bot the 8 corner super special from Jet’s is a guilty pleasure, to be sure, and will please a hungry and inebriated crowd every time.
Not gourmet. Not unique. But damn good for what it is.

Being a traveling musician I spend a lot of time consuming less than healthy items on the road. Pizza might be my biggest weakness, and Jet’s quality in no way let me down. Delivery was quick and the temperature piping hot. As a fan of deep dish I’d also say that this buttery, crispy, cheesy, square of heaven was worth every cent.

ok i’m so hungry right now and i need to go grocery shopping so i am really wondering why am i writing a post for a food blog right now, and especially a post for THE BEST FUCKING PIZZA EVER??? something is wrong with me.
jet’s pizza is amazing. somehow in growing up in michigan i totally missed what everyone tells me is a michigan food staple but no, i never had it. it is classic detroit style square pizza. i have been a lifelong buddy’s pizza fan and i have to tell you, jet’s is better than buddy’s. yes. you read that right.
the amazingness of jet’s is limitless. so first of all it is like the best, crunchiest, butteriest crust ever. then there is the fact that they pile on the exact right amount of gooey delicious cheese and zesty sauce. and the toppings are ridic. it does not hurt that the first time i had jet’s pizza it was covered in bacon. but i have since had it with other toppings and still feel the same way.
and in the interest of science (ha) i ate buddy’s pizza covered in bacon right after i ate jet’s pizza covered in bacon and it was not as good. the crust is less flavorful and the sauce is disproportionate, and also buddy’s has always had this problem where like the toppings and sauce pretty much only hit the middle third to half of the pizza, and you have way too much plain crust.
moving on to other menu items, they have super delicious cheesy bread sticks and super delicious boneless wings and the most fucking amazing ranch sauce you have ever had in your life which is reportedly made in house and which annette tells me you will never eat again if you know what is in it, and i do not know what is in it and do not plan to find out so i can happily gorge myself on it until the end of time and/​or until i die of a corotted artery (or however you spell that) (and what the hell is a corotted artery anyway? is this one of those things that i just made up in my head?).
clearly the ranch sauce has already gone to my brain. eat jet’s pizza immediately. that is all.

Cheap pizza, a little too greasy with canned mushrooms. Overall underwhelmed but not shocked.
The delivery guy was prompt and friendly.

This place has the most consistently delicious pizza… ever.
I will crush a Jet’s Pizza anytime, anywhere.
Chewy crust (I love the Turbo Crust).
The crew is always working hard, they remember who you are, and make sure you come back.
This is a hidden gem.

Good pan pizza and cheese bread. Yummy!

Gave Jet’s another shot! They were very friendly, delivery was fast, and the food was tasty.

Can’t say anything about the quality of service since others picked up the pizza, so I will just comment on the pizza itself. This is a deep dish place… holla! I LOVE deep dish pizza, especially if I can get a corner piece with slightly crusted edges. Pizza joints seem particularly common here in Lansing, but that’s probably just what I’ve been eating the few days I’m here.
I know I like corner pieces, and Jet’s does it perfectly… I just wish the whole pizza was made of corner pieces, cause I was slightly disappointed by the middle pieces. They seemed to be less tasty than the corners and edges. Jet’s, can you find a way to make your whole pizza into corner pieces? I’ll buy pizza from you every day if you do that! :)
